  Mario had it in spades but even he struggles to pull of celeste shoes matched with full yellow kit.

  Some of the other shit going on is fairly shocking, Spinergy wheels and aerobars.

  They're not aero bars; they are Spinassi bars. They were the balls in 1997.@the Engine

  Who's the guy in front of the Spinergy man wearing my Time shoes? I still have them in the garage if anyone wants a suitably retro look to recreate this photo.

  My brother thought Spinergy wheels were cool and used them in triathlons - which tells you all you need to know about Spinergys

  Is it Frédéric Guesdon?

  I have an awesome photo of Cipo but I think you guys wouldn't appreciate it as much as I do. ;-)

  My VMH has just pointed out that the bike is off the ground - how the fuck did he do that?

  What bike?

  Well, that Cipo video wasn't what I was expecting when the first words on the screen were "THE CHAMPION. THE POWER. HIS TOOL."

  Double +1
